DESCRIPTION:(from Nat Geo WILD's press release, February 2013) Nearly three-quarters of Earth is covered by water, yet surprisingly little is known about the incredible marine life that inhabits our oceans. From tropical waters to icy glaciers, from the deepest depths of the ocean floor to its sun-kissed surface, millions of resilient, remarkable and utterly bizarre creatures call the oceans home. Kingdom of the Oceans, premiering Sunday, March 10 and 17, 2013, with two back-to-back episodes at 8 and 9 p.m. ET/PT on Nat Geo WILD, dives into the planet's waters for a breathtaking look at the splendor of the underwater world. Hosted by Alexandra Cousteau and shot at more than 50 locations and with 80 different species, this four-part, high-definition special offers a visual feast of natural history cinematography. Experience the thrill of the chase as predators stalk their prey. Come face-to-face with creatures of every shape, size and color. Cameras splash into the depths of the seas to bring viewers one step closer to understanding the great watery unknown.
